What do you think about this build??

savagesoob · 02-11-2021, 10:21 PM

Considering going built block. And instead of buy a SB and all installation cost, I'm thinking to buy a used longblock. Came across this. Looking to make 500-550whp. DD but not everyday 3-4 days a week. I have 1300cc injectors and stock fuel loines and rails.. sure those will have to be upgraded? I have all the other bolt ons I need I think. Except for the bigger turbo since a 20G won't cut it. Any potential problems you see with these parts? Thnaks!!!
